Good catch, I didn't notice that.

That's the same one that I actually carry. Love that gun! And it's a good shooter too.

Thanks for the info! I have a set of rubber Hogues on my regular 3913 that I carry and love them. The NL above that I just got also came with a set. This gun will probably end up being my wife's. She has extremely small hands and doesn't like the feel of the Hogues at all, so I'll probably...

It's the one on top with the black grips. Snagged it at the gunshow in Knoxville last weekend... no box, no paperwork and 1 mag. It appears to be either unfired or at least it has a very low round count. There are some differences in configuration between the two. I guess they changed a little...

I've never seen a nickle 469 before. That's a sweet little gun!

I replaced the recoil spring when I got the gun 2 years ago. It has less than 500 rounds thru it.

Just how tight should the barrel/bushing/slide relationship be? It seems to be loose in my opinion. Are there any specs around so I could check the dimensions?

Only reason I didn't mention the ammo specifically is because I've tried so many different types/brands/weights that it didn't seem pertinent to me. Doesn't really seem to make a huge difference what I put thru it, group size generally hovers right around 4" at 10 yds. The only notable exception...

I have a 639 that I love, but for whatever reason, it's just not accurate at all. I have a few other S&W autos, and they are all great shooters, but this one just plain sucks. I've tried piles of different ammo thru it with no luck whatsoever. The target below was sandbagged at 10 yds... that's...

That's my plan. Gonna get a sight pusher and give it a whirl. I figure I can't do any worse than that. And yes, I agree that they should pay for a new slide as well. However, I didn't notice the slide damage until the next day, so I have no actual proof that they did it. I'm willing to let it...

It could be worse. My LGS put on a set of Williams Fire Sights last week with a hammer and punch. They reimbursed me for the cost of the sights, but I didn't notice the punch marks on the slide until after I got home. There are also scratches on the slide next to the front sight. My new M&P 22...

I'll take it per our conversation.

Congrats on the 639, that's a smoking deal! They are simply beautiful guns and are smooth as butter to shoot. I got one 2 years ago and it kickstarted my obsession with the Smith autos.

To the top...

Looking to sell one of my model 59's. It's in great shape, as the pictures show. There are a couple of very minor scratches and handling marks, would consider this one in very good condition. I've put about 200 rounds through it in the last 2 years, and it's a good shooter. The gun is...

My first carry gun (and first handgun I bought) when I turned 21 was a brand new 457. I've been thru an assortment since then. Nowadays, I mostly carry an LCP, for convenience sake. If I want a bigger gun, it's the 3913. I usually carry a full size when traveling, and until recently, it was a...

I've got the Burris FF3 on my G40. Love it and highly recommend it.

I lucked out back in January and got a non-tsw 4566 with 2 mags and no box on the big auction site for $375. The grips have a few dings but is otherwise in excellent shape.

Well, nevermind. I followed a link in the "Similar Threads" at the bottom of the page and found both the problem and the solution. The gun is already fixed and packed up for a range day tomorrow. Thanks anyway.

I snagged a 4566 a while back for a pretty good price. I haven't shot it much, only 50 rounds so far. It seems to operate just fine so far. However, there is an audible and tactile click when pulling the trigger. It occurs about halfway through the takeup in single action only, never in double...
